Chapter 501: Transcend heaven and earth, seek within oneself
As the news spread throughout the world, another period of time passed. During this period, the new emperor Ji Yuan purged the court, and a large number of officials and dignitaries were dismissed and beheaded, including Chen Yuanli, Minister of War, and others.
With the death of King Huai, his party also declined. Countless followers who were close to King Huai and were the most loyal followers of King Huai were all eliminated by the new emperor Ji Yuan by taking this opportunity.
This time, Ji Yuan was not soft-hearted at all. After experiencing the last incident, he had a deeper understanding of how to become an emperor.
Of course, because there were so many people involved last time, less than 30% of the court officials were not involved. If all those people were killed, the entire Great Xia would come to a standstill.
Therefore, after careful consideration, Ji Yuan left some people behind and asked them to atone for their sins. Of course, it was said to be atonement for their sins, but it was actually just an emergency. Once suitable candidates were trained, these officials would immediately step down, although they would not
He was executed, but he could only return to his hometown to live out his old life.
Those who participated in the rebellion could avoid the death penalty, but they could not escape the punishment of living. Each of these ministers knew this well.
At this moment, in the imperial study room, Ji Yuan had not had much rest in the past few days and was very busy.
But even so, he didn't feel tired at all. Instead, he was in high spirits and extremely excited.
After all, the person who restrained him in the court is gone. From now on, he is the true human emperor of Daxia!
As for the entire court, because of this incident, Ji Yuan also had the opportunity to cultivate more backbones who were loyal to himself and to Daxia.
It can be said that Ji Yuan is extremely grateful to Gu Chen. At the same time, he is also very lucky that he made the right choice. No matter what happened to Gu Chen, he stood firmly on Gu Chen's side.
At the same time, the fate of King Huai was also used by Ji Yuan to spur him on. He did not want to become a puppet of power and become the person he hated the most after he took full power.
At this moment, in the imperial study room, Ji Yuan was sitting at the top wearing a bright yellow robe, while Qin Wu, the deputy commander of Jingtian Division, was below.
"Commander Qin, are you looking for me?" Ji Yuan let out a breath, put down the memorial in his hand, took a sip of tea, and looked at Qin Wu who was standing below.
Upon hearing this, Qin Wu immediately stood up, clasped his fists and said, "I came here this time to tell His Majesty that after sitting in the position of deputy commander of Jingtian Division for so many years, it is time for me to abdicate."
Speaking of this, Qin Wu had a smile on his face.
Seeing this, Ji Yuan also smiled and joked: "Commander Qin is in his prime, but he actually wants to retreat to the second line and live a leisurely life?"
Qin Wudao: "Nowadays, Gu Chen is extremely powerful and is really not suitable to continue to serve as the guardian. My strength is far inferior to that of Gu Chen. I am no longer suitable for this position. It is time to abdicate."
.”
Qin Wu had told Ji Yuan about this matter when Gu Chen went to Yanzhou, and Ji Yuan also agreed.
However, now, Ji Yuan has some different ideas about Qin Wu's proposal.
The new emperor said: "There is no rush in this matter, let's put it aside for now."
Hearing this, Qin Wu's expression suddenly changed, and he looked at Ji Yuan with some confusion, not knowing what he meant.
Even Eunuch Huang, who stood aside without saying a word, glanced at Ji Yuan in surprise.
At this moment, the new emperor looked calm, looked at the surprised Qin Wu, and said calmly: "Commander Qin, the world seems to be peaceful now, but in fact there are still many crises. In my opinion, the position of deputy commander, except for you, is
There is no one else more suitable.”
"Your Majesty, what do you mean by this?" Qin Wu frowned. Could it be that the new emperor had just finished dealing with King Huai and was preparing to play "The cunning rabbit dies and the lackey is cooked"?
However, with Gu Chen's current power in Kyushu, Ji Yuan should not be like this, and Ji Yuan is not a person with that kind of personality.
Seeing this scene, Ji Yuan knew that Qin Wu had misunderstood. He shook his head and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Commander Qin. I have other plans for Gu Chen. Not only is the guard envoy no longer suitable for him now, but also Wu An
The title Hou' is also like this."
"Um?!"
When Qin Wu heard this, he was suddenly shocked. He vaguely guessed what Ji Yuan was thinking.
"Now that the matter has just ended, I have to think carefully about what kind of rewards should be given to Gu Chen to be worthy of all that he has given to Daxia." The new emperor Ji Yuan said with a smile.
…
Tiandu Inner City, Qintian Prison, top of Bagua Tower, and Star Observation Deck.
At this moment, Gu Chen was sitting cross-legged. Opposite him was the supervisor with white hair and white beard.
"Have all the injuries been healed?" The white-haired and white-bearded supervisor picked up the teacup in front of him, took a sip and asked.
"It's no problem anymore." Gu Chen nodded.
Seeing this, the supervisor asked: "What do you think about what those wizards from the upper world said to you that day?"
Gu Chen knew clearly that the supervisor was referring to the so-called "body becoming a world". He had already understood this situation from the words of Lin Fengyangqian and Mo Lun.
"I did think about it during this period and did some digging, but there was nothing unusual about it," Gu Chen replied.
The supervisor smiled lightly, looked at Gu Chen and asked, "What do you think of this world?"
"Um?"
When Gu Chen heard this, he suddenly looked startled. He didn't know why the supervisor would suddenly ask such a question.
The supervisor smiled and said, "Don't be in a hurry to answer me."
"good."
Gu Chen nodded. He thought deeply for a moment and said: "The world of Jiuzhou is ruined and the rules are not perfect. Therefore, it is very difficult for the martial arts masters in the Condensing Realm to be born. It is also the same if they want to break through. The reason why the upper world can continue to
It is also for this reason that people come here.”
If the rules of Kyushu Heaven and Earth were complete, although it would still be far from comparable to the upper realm, it would definitely not be like this.
And if those wizards from the upper realm want to come down, they won't be able to do so easily. People will continue to come from the lower realm.
The supervisor nodded and said with some emotion: "Yes, no matter how vast the world is, there will eventually be a day when it will perish."
"Um?!"
As soon as the supervisor said this, Gu Chen's expression was suddenly shocked, and he seemed to have some realization.
Upon seeing this, the supervisor smiled and nodded, obviously recognizing Gu Chen's understanding.
"understand?"
Gu Chen frowned slightly and said: "What the supervisor wants me to focus on is the cultivation of the physical body and not to rely too much on the outside world?"
The supervisor shook his head and said: "It's not the physical body, but you personally. What do you think a warrior is?"
Hearing this, Gu Chen frowned. After a while, he replied: "Do you want to seek your own body within yourself?"
"good."
The supervisor glanced at Gu Chen approvingly and said: "In my opinion, a true warrior is one who allows all great power to be attributed to oneself, which is what you call seeking oneself within oneself, pursuing oneself, and discovering the most important thing in oneself.
I always believe that once the potential within a warrior's body is fully unleashed, it may not be any worse than the outside world!"
Having said this, the prison master's expression gradually became serious, and he continued: "As I just said, the outside world will eventually perish, even the upper world will be the same. Now,
In the current martial arts realm, although it is necessary to borrow the power of heaven and earth to maximize one's combat power, in my opinion, borrowing the power of heaven and earth is the second best, and using the power of heaven and earth for one's own use is the right way!"
"this?!"
Hearing the words of the prison master, Gu Chen's heart trembled, and all kinds of enlightenment arose.
Yes, even if you are in the realm of condensation, you can only comprehend the world and copy the rules and textures of the world to your own domain. Moreover, the most important thing in the domain is to absorb the infinite essence of the outside world and bless your own body.
The prison master's intention was to let Gu Chen understand the texture of his own world, break away from the outside world, and no longer rely on it.
It can be said that this is very amazing and extremely difficult!
"Of course, this is a long road, but compared to others, you have this opportunity and you also have advantages that others do not have."
The supervisor said: "What is the realm of heaven and man? This so-called 'heaven' does not refer to the 'heaven' of the outside world, but wants you to become your own 'heaven'!"
At this moment, Gu Chen's eyes were wide open and unblinking. The words spoken by the supervisor really shocked him, and they also made many thoughts that he had never had before emerge in his heart.
Normally speaking, the Heaven and Human Realm that Gu Chen understands is one that blends into the outside world. Every move is like the will of this world. Naturally, the Heaven and Human Realm is superior to all warriors. It is the pinnacle of martial arts.
Also known as the martial arts immortal.
Because once you reach that point, you really have no objections to the gods, and you can move mountains and seas with just a few clicks.
But now, the supervisor told him not to rely too much on the outside world, but to let him walk his own path, understand the texture of his own rules, let all the great power belong to himself, and use the power of the world for his own use.
.
This opens up a new world for Gu Chen, and since he has the potential to become a physical person, he has a great chance of doing so.
It is precisely for this reason that the supervisor told Gu Chen these things today.
"Only in this way can we break away from the shackles of the outside world and form our own world without fear of anything and never fall into disaster." The supervisor said.
And this is exactly the true meaning of the physical body becoming a world!
However, it is difficult to achieve this, and the success rate is extremely low and slim, but the supervisor believes that Gu Chen has this potential!
The supervisor looked at Gu Chen, his eyes were old and his voice was low, and he said: "I am already old. Both me and this world have their limits, but you don't have them. From now on, Daxia and Kyushu will have to
It’s up to you to protect me.”
"Thank you, supervisor!"
At this time, Gu Chen stood up, with a very solemn expression, and bowed deeply to the supervisor.
This is the grace of preaching and deserves such a great gift from Gu Chen!
Although there is no supervisor, Gu Chen himself can understand as time goes by, but he doesn't know how long it will be, and during this time, he will definitely take many detours.
But it's different now. It can be said that the supervisor's few words impressed Gu Chen deeply and had a profound impact on his future path!
Moreover, as the supervisor said, Gu Chen may not be able to do it, and it can even be said to be very possible. After all, he has the potential to become a world in the flesh, and more importantly, he has the seed of heaven in his body!
Once the Heavenly Seed truly grows up, it will be an independent world, or a world that belongs to Gu Chen alone!
Perhaps, the supervisor also saw this, so he said this today.
Seeing Gu Chen like this, the supervisor just smiled faintly, and a touch of relief flashed in his old eyes.
He has watched Gu Chen's growth all the way, no matter when.
Later, after discussing this issue with the supervisor for a long time, Gu Chen suddenly remembered something. He looked at the supervisor with a solemn expression and said: "Some time ago, I was in Yanzhou with the leader of the Demon Cult, Dugu Yun.
There was a big battle."
"oh?"
When the prison master heard this, his snow-white brows raised. Apparently, it was difficult for him to deduce the whereabouts of the demon sect leader Dugu Yun using his celestial gazing technique.
Otherwise, Daxia would not have found the location of the Demon Cult Headquarters to this day.
Gu Chen frowned and asked: "Supervisor, has Dugu Yun broken through to the realm of heaven and man?"
When the supervisor heard this, he looked solemn and said: "He is not there yet, but he will be soon."
"really!"
Hearing this, Gu Chen suddenly looked shocked. He also had this expectation. If he didn't want to achieve the realm of heaven and man, the supervisor would not be unable to deduce Dugu Yun.
But at this time, the supervisor said something that surprised Gu Chen.
"Dugu Yun is not a warrior from Kyushu, but a visitor from outside the world just like those wizards from the upper world."
"Um?!"
Gu Chen was shocked, looked at the supervisor with some confusion, and said: "Which world does Dugu Yun come from?"
The supervisor shook his head, looked solemn, and said in a deep voice: "He is a monster!"
After a pause, the supervisor continued: "The real Dugu Yun died more than three hundred years ago. Now, a demon has taken over his body. No, no, it's not a demon. It should be said to be an evil spirit.
"
"Evil?!" Gu Chen's pupils shrank. This was the first time he heard this.
